Leaf Removal
Protect Your Lawn and Keep Your Property Clean
Falling leaves may look harmless, but when left to sit, they can smother your lawn, attract pests, and cause long-term damage to grass and soil. That’s why seasonal leaf removal is a crucial part of maintaining a healthy yard—especially during the fall and early winter months.
At By The Yard Lawn Care, we offer professional leaf removal services throughout Effingham, SC. Whether it’s a light layer of leaves or a thick seasonal build-up, our team will clear your yard quickly, safely, and thoroughly.
We don’t just blow leaves into a pile—we remove them entirely and leave your lawn looking neat, fresh, and ready to breathe.
What Our Leaf Removal Service Includes
We offer complete leaf cleanup from start to finish. Our process includes:
Blowing Leaves from All Areas
We clear leaves from grass, beds, porches, patios, driveways, walkways, and fence lines.
Raking and Collection
For thicker layers of leaves, we rake and consolidate the debris.
Bagging or Hauling
Depending on your preference, we can bag the leaves for city pickup or haul them away.
Final Cleanup
Once leaves are cleared, we perform a final blow-off to ensure your property looks clean and finished.
We use high-powered blowers and other commercial-grade equipment to ensure efficient service. Each cleanup is tailored to your yard’s size, layout, and tree coverage.
The Importance of Removing Leaves from Your Lawn
While some leaf coverage can provide soil nutrients, heavy layers can block sunlight, trap moisture, and suffocate your grass. Left too long, thick leaves can also lead to fungal growth, mold, and pest infestation.
Benefits of timely leaf removal include:
- Preventing lawn suffocation and turf damage
- Reducing pest habitats (rodents, ticks, insects)
- Avoiding mold and lawn fungus
- Improving curb appeal
- Preparing your lawn for winter and spring growth
Timely cleanup is especially important in the late fall, when back-to-back leaf drops can overwhelm your yard. Removing them early keeps your lawn healthy and prevents labor-intensive spring recovery.

Leaf Removal vs. DIY Cleanup

- No trips to the landfill
- Clean results with no mess left behind
- Safe removal without damaging turf or plants
We remove the debris, not just move it around.
